Looks like there might be a little clip on the roof that it could possible be inserted into.

Streaker is looking great especially with that clear sun roof effect, a nice way to differetiate (word of the day!) him from his car brothers!

Does Prowl and Bluestreak have different face sculpts like Sideswipe/Red Alert have?

Yes they do (please forgive the use of a TFW pic but it was the clearest head shot I could find, I will do my penance later)

Not just the faces, but their entire heads are different sculpts, too.

That means my RK order should ship out soon...

Shipped!

Yesterday I noticed that Prowl eyes are painted light blue, kind of like Hasbro's MP-10. I love that.

Those are quite possibly the best face sculpts I've seen on a TF recently. Wow, these just get better and better the more I see of them. Payday can't come soon enough.

aw heck! I thought skipping this one, but I guess I cant!

I'll have 3 Fairladies then...

Just shipped my hlj.com order!

Prowl, Bluestreak and UN31 United Beast Megatron for $155 shipped. Glad I went with hlj instead of BBTS on this one, saved quite a few $$$

You really don't want to know.

The only minor issue that I have with Bluestreak's head sculpt is that his mouth is close. It would have been nice if he looked like he was talking. I mean he is called Bluestreak for a reason.

I was putting down and bashing this mp Bluestreak ever since I first saw the pics of him but after seeing these in hand photos of him and after receiving mp Prowl and seeing how good he turned out I'm now totally mind changed on Bluestreak. The silver and black looks very good. I just bought him after cancelling several preorders for him during the past couple of months. These mp cars look so so so good in hand. Takara, I give you a standing :APPLAUSE:

Tell me about it! hlj.com takes priority for all my MP purchases from now on. Also, that is $155 AUD, so in USD take another $5 - $10 off.

Too bad I already put all my MP preorders in at TFsource... all the way through Ultra Magnus...

Shame, I have Wheeljack, Bumblebee and Ultra Magnus pre-ordered with BBTS just to guarantee I get them and when/if HLJ put them up I will just cancel the BBTS pre-orders.

I'm still interested to know if Wheeljack and Bee are official, as BBTS is the only place to really announce them.

TFsource also has them up for preorder.

TFsource was reacting to BBTS's announcements so they don't lose out on pre-orders. I don't believe Takara has officially announce wheeljack, bumblebee, or Ultra Magnus. That is my understanding anyway.
